The Pan Eros Foundation is pleased to create space for people to meet, talk, and share conversation and ideas. Each month, Pan Eros will host a discussion at Gallery Erato with a different topic to encourage the sharing of ideas and to create and expand communities. Pan Eros means “all love” and we support participants in cultivating and celebrating their sexuality. To support this mission, our monthly discussion topics will range among the educational and artistic realms.

June’s topic:
What happens in art when “the gaze” and the identity of the artist are not the expected combination? There are many lenses which to view art. Come explore why representation is so important in the erotic arts as we jump into Pride Month. Perhaps we can delve into:

  • Performative eroticism and authentic eroticism
  • Societal impact on the and of “the gaze”
  • How does the intention behind the creation of art influence its consumption
  • Effect “The gaze” on artistic development
Our goal in hosting these meetings is to grow a community that has rich conversations about sexuality. By fostering open discussions, we hope to end the stigma around sex and sexuality so that people may live more authentically and happily.
Each month’s topic and host will be announced as they are confirmed.
All sexes, genders, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, relationship orientations, and religions are welcome and celebrated. Kindness and a willingness to respect another point of view are expected.
